Jumped the Gun



It's been so beautiful lately that I forgot how New Mexico is in the spring. Last week I was wearing a tank top and working in the yard and today the sky is steel gray and it is frigid! My neighbor Ahmed saw me planting a tomato plant and told me to wait two weeks but I got carried away with the smell of wet grass and the siren song of the new buds on the rose bush and planted it anyway. Now it is a pile of brown mush. Why must nature toy with me so!
